There are numerous applications of the bamboo grass plant covered in this review paper. Bambusa arundinaceae (Retz.) Wild is an important species among the bamboo community. Young bamboo grass shoots can be processed into a variety of delectable, healthful meals and occasionally as medications. There are 26 species of bamboo in Bangladesh, classified into seven genus, encompassing both wild and domesticated exotics. The plant contains various bioactive compounds like silica 70 or Silicum as a hydrate of silicic acid, peroxide of iron, potash, lime, and alumina, proteins, phosphorus, iron, vitamin B, nicotinic acid, riboflavin, carotene, calcium phosphorus, thiamine, niacin, and oxalic acid. Diverse studies carried out on bans, by various researchers reported a wide spectrum of pharmacological actions like hepatoprotective, antioxidant, analgesic, antipyretic, anti-ulcer and antidiabetic activities,...

Objectives: Silymarin is an anti-inflammatory agent that is used in the treatment of a variety of inflammatory disorders. The aim of the present study was to prepare and evaluate novel polymeric nanoparticles containing Silymarin. Materials and Methods: A 32 full factorial design was used to study the effect of Eudragit EPO and Pluronic F-68 on the characterization of nanoparticle suspensions. The polymeric nanoparticles were prepared by Nano precipitation technique. The prepared nanoparticles was evaluated by percentage yield, drug polymer compatibility using Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy and differential scanning calorimetric (DSC) analysis, drug content, entrapment efficiency, zeta potential, particle size, scanning electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction, in-vitro drug release studies, kinetic modelling, stability studies, and in-vivo animal studies. Results: The DSC study revealed that the drug was involved in complexation with nanoparticles. The average particle size of Silymarin nanoparticles was in the range of 114.4 nm to 136.7 nm. The zeta potential values were attained to ensure good stability of nanosuspensions. In-vitro release of the drug from nanoparticles follows the...

Compost tea used as organic fertilizer have beneficial effects on plants growth and is considered as a valuable soil amendment with disease suppressing activity. This study was conducted to determine the concentration of Compost tea from two sources organic manures necessary for growth performance of A. muricata seedlings. Compost tea from cow dung and horse dung were applied at different concentration rate (25%, 50%, 75% and 100%) in a Completely Randomized Design (CRD) with 9 treatments each replicated seven (7) times. Parameters assessed were plant height, stem diameter and number of leaves of the seedlings. The data collected were subjected to Analysis of Variance (ANOVA) and means were separated using Duncan Multiple Range Test (DMRT) at 5% level of significance. The result showed that there was no significant difference among the treatments at 5% probability level as T5 (cow dung 100%) had best performance plant height, stem diameter and number of leaves with mean of 11.25cm, 7.57cm and 7.00 at 10th week respectively. It can be concluded that undiluted...

Urolithiasis is the one of the old diseases in humans. Renal stones are a common problem worldwide, affecting all geographical regions with substantial morbidities and economic costs. The main aim of this article to review the recent research on urolithiasis to treat with medicinal plants that are present in India. In this article, review the recent prevalence data of urolithiasis in India. The study explores the efficacy and availability of the herbal treatment of urolithiasis. Plants are available in nature; safest mode of treatment and Cost-effectiveness may enable improvements in treatment efficiency that can benefit patients and the healthcare system. This study elaborates the recent research in treating urolithiasis with medicinal plants and their phytoleads. Compile research work’s in-vitro and in-vivo data and highlight their methods and results. The average life time risk of stone formation has been reported in the 5-10% range. Recurrent stone formation is a common part of the medical care of patients with stone diseases. Herbal medicine has several phytoleads and exert their pharmacological action...

Essential oils are largely employed for their therapeutic properties, and marketed extensively in the pharmaceutical and cosmetic industry. Geranium oil is a floral substitute for rose essential oil with its pungent rose-like odor and is one of the most valuable essential oils. Favorable quality properties make the geranium essential oil exigible for food industry applications. Our study aimed to assess the purity and quality of geranium oil available from various commercial producers. The gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) technique was used to detect and quantify the volatile constituents of geranium essential oil. 40 (fourty) volatile compounds were determined by the GC-MS method. The most abundant compounds were determined as geraniol (27.98%), citronellol (20.71%), isomenthone (6.57%), geranyl formate (6.52%) and linalool...
